Breuer admits to never fully crapping in the woods… Fans forgive him

“You ever sh*t in the woods?”

It’s not a bad way to get into a in-depth conversation or side commentary for the world’s largest podcaster. Recently, Joe Rogan sat down with guest and long-famed comedian, former SNL cast-member and actor Jim Breuer. Their conversation touched upon a litany of topics. However, the staff at Poopable honed in on their pooping habits dialogue.

The episode aired on the Joe Rogan Experience early in the second week of January, which can be exclusively found on Spotify.

“Sh*tting outside is fun!”

Breuer, who is notable famed for his years on Saturday Night Live in the late 90’s as well as his work in cult classics like Half Baked is still great for a laugh well into his late 50s. If you are a pooper and want to get right to the conversation that caught our attention, it begins around the one-hour and eleven-minute mark.

Rogan makes the comment that pooping in the squatting position is the most natural way to relive oneself. “You’re like weeeee,” is the feeling and sound that Rogan associated to what is believed to be the most natural form of pooping.

Health experts have made the argument that squatting is a more natural and anatomically aligned position for defecation. In this position, the hips are flexed, and the knees are brought closer to the chest, allowing for a straighter and more open passage for stool.

Advocates of squatting suggest that it aligns the rectum with the anus more effectively, potentially making elimination easier and reducing the risk of issues like constipation. They often point to studies indicating that squatting may lead to a straighter and less obstructed flow.

The staff at Poopable believe it’s important to note that the “naturalness” of the position is a matter of debate, and societal factors play a significant role in toilet habits. Traditional Western-style toilets, which involve sitting, are prevalent in many parts of the world. So, Poopable will leave the final deposit position up to the individual pooper!

One of the astounding facts we learn about Breuer during this part of the podcast is that he is a double-dumper. Breuer explains that every morning after he wakes up, “wahbang!” Then after a cup of expresso, it’s another “wahbang!”

Breuer is a double dump-a-day kind of pooper

Some poopers may wonder if daily double-dumping is healthy or not so healthy. The answer is not a simple “yes” and close the bathroom door or a “no” and run to the doctor.

Ultimately, the frequency of bowel movements varies widely among individuals, and what is considered normal can range from several times a day to a few times a week. Pooping twice-a-day is generally considered normal and healthy for many people. According to internet health experts, there’s no one-size-fits-all answer, as individual factors, diet, and lifestyle play crucial roles.

The staff at Poopable can definitely advise to Breuer that his morning expresso is certainly helping and even expediting his double-dumping daily ritual. For most poopers, drinking espresso or coffee in general can have a laxative effect and stimulate bowel movements. The primary reason behind this is the presence of caffeine in coffee, which acts as a stimulant on the digestive system.

“You want to be regular,” explains Rogan when addressing Breuer about the frequency of his bowel movements.

Expresso will have you riding the Poo Poo Express!

Rogan provides a useful and jarring tale of a former Fear Factor producer, “Larry” that was so backed-up, he had to seek medical attention from a doctor to receive a procedure for physical removing fecal matter from his body…

Rogan was not exaggerating either. Within the medical world, procedures like Manual Disimpaction and Enemas are conducted to aid constipated poopers in distress.

Manual Disimpactation sounds like someone is throwing on a glove and lubricant… and this is not actually too far off! a healthcare provider can and manually remove impacted stool from a patient if it is becoming a health hazard. Enemas, which seem less invasive, involve the introduction of liquid into the rectum to soften and loosen the stool, making it easier to pass.

Ideally, all the poopers out there are passing their stools and time with ease and regularity. Perhaps Breuer’s comedic genius could be attributed to his frequency and regularity. We will never know for certain, but we do know that he won’t be having to bend over in front of a doctor in the near future.
